With just two and half months ahead of the poll battle in Andhra Pradesh state, a clarity on a broader perspective of AP's political picture is set forth by the political analysts.
Most importantly, TDP's MLA and MPs are frustrated by anti incumbency prevailed around the party and are envisaging that the defeat would be inevitable for them. As a result, a huge number of TDP's leaders have decided to defect the party.
While some MLAs and MPs have already joined YSRCP, a few more approached Janasena. It is reliably learnt that a total of 23 MLAs/MPs tried to join Janasna but the JSP's head gave nod to only three TDP candidates and are likely to submit their applications to screening committee soon.
On the other hand, YSRCP's loyalists are worrying about YS Jagan allowing scrap from TDP. "Most of the leaders who defected from TDP and joined YCP are corrupted people and are unlikely to win elections," says a source.
On the other hand, Power Pawan Kalyan is adamant to give away MLA/MP tickets to those politicians who have Mr clean image. To achieve his task, Janasena chief is giving least importance to caste and financial statuses of candidates.
All in all, TDP appeared to have vacated, while YSRCP has been filled with TDP's scrap. Janasena is the only political force that seems to be the ray of hope in AP's politics.
